1,922 km + today - August 10th

From Ron Smith (Z7):

Nick B. flew his LAK 17 405 km, Ulli W. flew his ASW-20 379 km, I flew the LAK 12 354 km, Martin L. flew the GGC ASW-24 293 km, Roger H. flew his SZD-55 296 km, and Dan D flew his SZD-55 195 km. Although they did not log their km-s, Norm F. was out with his Discuss, Karl B. with his ASW-20, Jarek with his SZD-55, Wolfgang W. with the GGC ASW-20, Gord with his ASW-20, Tim T. with the GGC L-33, and ...

Today, I counted at least 8 sailplane pilots strewn along the St-Lawrence between Cornwall and Gananoque Way - 5 from GGC, 2 from MSC, 1 from RVS...  and we all knew each other... a real airborne community !

To date this year, GGC sailplane pilots have flow 22.111 km... that is over half way around the world (40,075 km) on solar power !

If you are not flying cross-country, give serious consideration to joining us because it is FUN !

And if you are not logging your km-s on OLC, give serious consideration so that we can move up from 4th position to hopefully 1st !

Ron
